Theres a lot of nuance i never picked up as a kid. For instance goku is alot more intelligent than I ever realized. Hes kind of has a persona of being a big dumb goof who just does good because bad is bad but its really not that black and white.The guy is a paragon of wisdom and virtue. An insanely good father a realist and a strategist. He almost comes off as a genius. Not the book smart kind but an emotional genius. Hes a much better character then I ever realized. Truly the gold standard of a shonen protagonist.
